It sounds like you have great dreams and ideas for your team. That is great. The key is to help make the ideas your teams ideas, not just yours.
The past 2 years we have done a post season review of our robot. We talk about the decisions that were made, the designs chosen and not chosen, what worked well, what could have been better. We also talk about other teams robots and how they worked, especially if the other team used an idea that we considered. After this evaluation, we then look at what changes can be made to improve this time around.
I agree with the statement that part of the excitement of the program is the last minute finishing. That adds to the excitement and increases the ownership and personal investment in the robot.
And, on a final note, you are automatically qualified for Nationals in 2004 - because you are an even numbered team. Work hard to come up with some more $$ to try and get there.
Good Luck -
